Jim Bob And The Leisure Suits (S/T LP)

Jim Bob And The Leisure Suits were a four piece from Birmingham, Alabama that formed around 1979. I've read claims they were one of the first Punk bands to come from that area. They released two singles, and this LP, on their own Polyester Records Label. Out of the three, this is my favorite; by 1983, the band called it quits. Band members were: Leif Bondarenko, Matt Kimbrell, Henrik (Mots) Roden, and Craig Izard. Roden and Bondarenko went on to form the Primitons with Brad Dorset. Kimbrell joined up with the Ho Ho Men and The Mambo Combo. Sadly, Matt Kimbrell passed away last year, at the way too young age of 51 years old; If you would like to read more about him, you can check Here.

Hi Karen, I'm posting a few EP's and LP's with only a few of my favorite songs from each one. If you like any of the records; I don't think any of them are too hard to find or that expensive.Thanks for the comment!

Broken Links

Unfortunately, all of my pre 2/19/12 online files were lost during the takedown of Megaupload. I hope to eventually fix all of my broken links in time. But until then, if there's something you really want to hear I’ll consider requests.
